My name is Mike and I am the one-man forge behind Studio Drachenspiel.

This studio began as a personal project for my own Shadowdark sessions. I just wanted a better way to track torches at the table.

Out of that came ShadowTimer, a clean, evocative tool I made for personal use that brought easy function and, more importantly, tension back to the table. The more I used it, the more players and GM's asked where I got it and could they get it.

Today, Studio Drachenspiel has begun developing a suite of digital tools, ShadowForge, meant to enhance tabletop storytelling, not replace it.
